During the development of an aerial robotic platform, it is necessary to characterise the flight controller to ensure flight stability. Even though this can be done through open-source software like Betaflight, flight testing can result in potential crashes. To prevent this, this paper aims to design and manufacture a test rig to test and characterise the flight controller reliably. A 4-degree-of-freedom (DOF) test rig was developed to allow for vertical motion and characterise the yaw, pitch, and roll angles. It was also entirely constructed utilising additive manufacturing (AM). An iterative design approach was considered to improve the design after practical testing with a micro aerial robotic platform. This approach significantly enhanced the design of the ball joint and linear shaft to assist in better performance of the micro aerial robotic platform when using the test rig. |
